Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic both in action on not-so-manic Monday
Alcaraz takes on Matteo Berrettini while Djokovic will complete his fourth-round match with Hubert Hurkacz.
Novak Djokovic will return to action on day eight at Wimbledon after the curfew curtailed his charge for victory on Sunday while number one seed Carlos Alcaraz will face his toughest test yet.
Elsewhere on a day that used to be called ‘Manic Monday’ – when all the fourth-round singles matches would be scheduled – last year’s beaten finalist Ons Jabeur tackles two-time champion Petra Kvitova while 16-year-old sensation Mirra Andreeva tackles Madison Keys.
Here, the PA news agency takes a look at what day eight has in store.
Match of the Day
But the 2021 finalist is back and on the form he has shown so far looks more than capable of heading deep into this second week of the tournament.
However, there is the small matter of the world number one standing in his way.
Carlos Alcaraz, who won at Queen’s, is looking the real deal so far, so this fourth-round contest has the potential to be a classic.
Kvitova will have to be Ons it
The Czech player has got to the last-16 six times and she ended up as champion twice, reached the quarter-finals twice and the semi-final once.
Her run this year is a bit of an anomaly as it is just the second time she has got to this stage since her second title in 2014.
She will have her work cut out to get to the next stage as she is up against Ons Jabeur, who is looking to go one better than her runners-up spot last year.
Andreeva’s emergence continues
Maddison Keys is up next and the American is playing some nice tennis, having won in Eastbourne in the final warm-up tournament, so a fascinating match awaits.
